The last millionaire owner of this car lavished money on it to create the car we see today. No expense has been spared. the project having been approached with an open cheque book attitude.

A nut & bolt rebuild was completed on this car to bring it to new standards whilst keeping the classic look. including upgrades to modern specifications. A photographic history of the extensive rebuild comes with the car.

The engine has been completely rebuilt with a bigger valved 4. 2 injection head. 8:1 Pistons etc. Everything has been renewed or restored from the gearbox which is all synchro and has an uprated 4. 2 overdrive unit. the rear axle with a 3. 54 lock diff has all bearings replaced and new UJ's to prop shaft. the steering rack. the hubs wheel bearings all rubber bushes etc etc. It has a very expensive suspension system consisting of rear Boge shocks heavy duty lowered Coombes springs front Gaz shocks and a Harvey bailey front roll bar all professionally set up for the car it does not roll. the handling really is superb!

The list of modifications is endless & includes:
